Beautiful sky!!

No baby yet folks!!!

I thought what fun it would be for you all to have an advent calendar to open everyday you visited my site, but to no avail!! I have been unable to find one so I will have to come up with another idea won't I. Come back tomorrow and see what I have done or not as the case maybe!

At 7.30am this morning I stepped out the back door to this

We are so lucky to live insuch a beautiful world (at times) I think it would be fantastic to be able to capture these sort of colours in paint.

I have been knitting again today, another scarf which is a Christmas Present for one of Marks bestfriends daughter. I really ought to be getting on with my other knitting project, I don't mind sitting down for an hour to finish a scarf, but this other project takes alot more time and thought, I just can't seem to get motivated on it. The problem is I have never knitted this sort of thing before and I had planned to knit 2!!!!!! So I had better get moving!!!!!!!!!!!

At the potting shed we are having a sweetie making session, how many of you remember making peppermint creams, fruit out of marzipan and best of all Rum truffles. Well we will be doing that and more so keep watching.

Really must get on. I do hope I can upload pics tomorrow, the blogs I think are so much better with pictures, don't you??????

About Me

I am a stay at home mum, due to a daughter with Neurological Diversity! I am too busy to get bored and how people fit in work I'll never know! I craft, sewing, knitting and anything else that takes my fancy. I garden and have dug up part of my garden for veg patches! I now have two greenhouses both heated! Plus a new jungle bed which I started 2007! This has really captured my imagination to the extent that I now own 30 Brugmansia Bushes/Trees and many other beautiful Exotic Plants, so join me and see what mischief I get up to whilst home alone!!!

Warning

When I am an old woman I shall wear purpleWith a red hat which doesn't go, and doesn't suit me.And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer glovesAnd satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter.I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tiredAnd gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bellsAnd run my stick along the public railingsAnd make up for the sobriety of my youth.I shall go out in my slippers in the rainAnd pick the flowers in other people's gardensAnd learn to spit.You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fatAnd eat three pounds of sausages at a goOr only bread and pickle for a weekAnd hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.But now we must have clothes that keep us dryAnd pay our rent and not swear in the streetAnd set a good example for the children.We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.But maybe I ought to practice a little now?So people who know me are not too shocked and surprisedWhen suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.by Jenny Josephfound here http://www.tonya.me.uk/fun/warning.asp
